"Giving well is the best
revenge." |

What are these two guys grinning about? Lulu Dilworth thinks she knows, and it makes her very, very sad.Misadventures
in English
Reports,
in the words of inter- national students, from the farthest edge of English usage.
MAGNIFICAT???

Harriet Lobdell, innocently listening to the ethereal
Monteverdi Magnificat, becomes curious about what the words mean and immediately
gets in really big trouble.

No. 13 in the series.
MYSTERY
WORDS
A brief stroll through the strange little garden of common words whose origins remain a mystery.
Deadly Stat:
George. W. Bush, as governor of Texas, has presided over
more executions than any official in American history.

Magellan's Log Books & CDs
"Giving well is the best
revenge."
Gifts for yourself, and for any of your friends who are still awake and
thinking. All drawn from the sometimes boistrous, sometimes beautiful pages of Magellan's
Log. Click here for more info.

Alas, Guggenheim
With hardly a trace of envy, Rean Rhyne scans the list of current winners of Guggenheim
fellowships, and takes the foundation to task
for ignoring what he sees as a cultural revolution, a.k.a., the Internet.
Gender
Alert!
Reacting to a mind-expand- ing essay by
Lennard Davis, Doc Cuddy shouts, "Hallelujah! 21st century, here we come!"
KOANS
for the 21st Century
Tired of the same old same old Zen riddles? We have 17 new ones for you.
Here we go again, off into
the deep end of prose- writing. If you have a taste for archaic, arcane novellas, check
out The Long Jaded Wrath.
Once again some readers have
complained that some of our brainteasers are too easy. We aim to fix that (and them) with No. 13.

Eleven more questions to exercise your mind.

Since we honor Magellan in our name, we decided we should also undertake a
circumnavigation. Which we did... and this is
what happened.Dingleberry
Esthetics
How low will we stoop? Pretty low. Like, gagging with laughter at "art" somewhere below Leroy Neiman,
Norman Rockwell, et al.

Just can't decide whether to buy a Suburban or a 4-Runner? An
anonymous writer points out a few less obvious, more
worrisome present-day dichotomies.

No IPO? No advertising? How do we do it? We sometimes wonder too. Quality
tells (or so we hope). For now, check our gift shop for Magellan's
Log mementos.
A Day in the Park
A boring, only semi- comprehensible short story (but then, how many short stories
aren't?) by H. R. Kulup, which must've crossed the editor's desk on a day when he was
feeling guilty about not publishing more Real Literature.
